Barbourville vs Bell County

Ky storm · 03-03-2014, 09:28 AM

What do you think could be best game of first

WhyLie · 03-03-2014, 10:04 AM

Barbourville is the one runner-up team that I thought could pull an upset. ( Jackson winnig will not be an upset) Now we draw them. We have to really play hard. I have said the arena will be the x factor. Playing and shooting there will be very different. Cats can get it done. Looking forward to win. Cats by 5

While I believe Bell will win this game, as long as Phipps is coaching Barbourville, there will ALWAYS be a game to it!

The arena thing is the same for all the teams but I think it will be the best match up of the !st round. The Tigers are kind of like UK,s unforgettable team they play with heart the Bobcats have a lot of outside shooters that can bury a team

Good luck to the Bobcats. One game at a time.

WhyLie · 03-03-2014, 12:41 PM

The arena is the same for all, but all will not overcome it. That is the big question. Who plays well in it? That is why there remains a big question. Those teams that run and use an inside game, I feel have a small advantage. Outside shooting teams will be the question. If you have ever played in an arena, it is different shooting. Hopefully we can go to LMU and practice several times before we play. May help just a little.

I know everybody will jump straight down my throat for saying this, but I hate watching basketball games at The Arena. You are way too much removed from the action for my part.

Now concerts are another matter altogether. Love that venue for concerts!!

The arena is a terrible place for basketball. I agree 100%. It is all about money. I use to love going to each gym and watch regional play. The atmosphere was electric. Now, echo in the arena, of a quiet game removed from the action. Not fan friendly. Harlan County, hats off, I know they caught a lot of flack , I may have gave just a little, but the arena is terrible.

***Granny Bear*** · 03-03-2014, 03:42 PM

Yeah, we caught a lot of flack, still catching it actually. But it's all good. LOVED that atmosphere last year!! You were right down with the action, and to me anyway, that's what it's all about!!

Confused

I heard Harlin lost over 8 million dollars last year because they didn't have it at the Arena

KY Wildman · 03-03-2014, 10:13 PM

Barbourville Wins!!

insideinfo · 03-03-2014, 10:18 PM

There isn't that much money left in the entire 13th region or 52nd district!

Ky storm · 03-04-2014, 10:15 PM

You are right the people don't have no money but Martins Peterbuilt and others do but did not put any in Harlan last year

Tigers by 18? Is that score because Knox beat Clay or Jackson slim reaper?

~~BrokenArrow~~ · 03-05-2014, 04:59 PM

I'll take Bell in a barn burner.61-60

insideinfo · 03-05-2014, 05:30 PM

If it is close at the end watch out for Barbourville. But I expect Bell to win by double figures.

***Granny Bear*** · 03-05-2014, 07:54 PM

You are correct!! KC is famous for that tournament finish!!

LionPride69 · 03-06-2014, 12:33 AM

Bell by 13 is my pick.

WhyLie · 03-07-2014, 01:00 PM

Game Day. Can not wait. Hope we play hard and everything will go fine.

Wildcats72 · 03-07-2014, 01:45 PM

bell could make run at finals if they shoot the ball well, if not one and done

walterwhite · 03-07-2014, 05:13 PM

Nothing like the regional tournament atmosphere when it's held in the high school gyms. I don't care if you're elbow to elbow and cheek to cheek, the atmosphere is a thousand times better than the Arena. If you are a neutral observer I can kinda understand choosing the Arena, as you are there to watch games only. If you have a team involved give me the gyms everytime!
